Calming Experiences for the Mind and Senses

Process
Our relaxation services involve having you sit in a comfortable reclining chair in a dimly lit room. You will be asked to turn off all distracting devices (cell phone, radio, blackberry, etc) during your session. This is to protect you from interruptions.Using high quality headphones to limit how much “background noise” intrudes into your awareness, you will listen to about 25 minutes of guided relaxation instructions with soothing background music.

We have many different relaxation CDs available, and many different CDs of background music. This allows us to vary your experience from one session to the next. We will keep records of which materials you use in each session and offer you the opportunity to write your own comments about the session so that we can create a similar experience for you in the future if you so desire. By tracking your preferences over time, we will be able to tailor your experience more closely to your preferences in subsequent sessions.

At the end of your session, you will have an opportunity to have a cup of hot herbal tea of your choice and a few calm minutes to remain in the room with your mind quiet and your body relaxed. This is frequently a good time to think about what issues you might need to be addressing over the next days or weeks.
